Steam Cloud Available This Week

The Cloud system will be available beginning with the Left 4 Dead demo

Valve today announced that the Steam Cloud system will debut this week together with the Left 4 Dead demo. The Cloud system allows the game to store online various settings like keyboard, mouse, and gamepad configurations, as well as multiplayer settings such as spraypaint images. It doesn't matter from what PC you're playing, because as long as your settings are synced with Cloud, you won't need to change them every time you play from a different computer. The system will debut this week, but the first full game to use it will be Left 4 Dead, which launches on November 18th.
